Aunty Delta Kay's Bundjalung walks: how to book a first-person Country tour in Byron

Indigenous-owned, Walgun headland + Bangalow + Broken Head. Worth booking ahead.

By Byron Bay Backpackers editorial team

Aunty Delta Kay runs guided Bundjalung walks at Walgun (the Bundjalung name for the Cape Byron headland), Bangalow, and Broken Head Nature Reserve. It's a first-person Country tour, Indigenous-owned and led by a Traditional Custodian and Elder.

We mention this regularly because it's genuinely one of the highest-impact few hours you can spend in Byron, and because it deserves visitor attention that the mainstream tourism circuit doesn't always direct toward it. Cape Byron is 20,000+ years of Bundjalung Arakwal Country; walking it with someone whose family has been here for thousands of years is fundamentally different to walking it as a tourist.

Bookable via explorebyronbay.com. Small groups, so book ahead. Prices vary by tour, so check the booking page for current prices. We don't earn commission on this.

If you do one cultural experience in Byron, do this. Skydiving and kayaking are great. Walking on Walgun with a Bundjalung Elder is another category entirely.
